A sensitive issue....

This thread has made me laugh, a lot. It's spooky however, because I was going to create almost the same thread, but about a female colleague.
She's fairly unbearable at the best of times, but my main issue with her is her sneaky flatulence. I thought I was the only one to notice it, but the guy next to me sent me this email the other day while she was at my desk talking to me:
'FFS! Why does she have to come over here and fart all the time? I mean, there's not even anyone sitting near her over there, so she could guff the place up and no one would be any the wiser. But no, she has to come and foul up OUR DESKS. She's disgusting'.
He's right, too. She generally does seem to reek of bum. Really reek of it, it often smells very fresh.
No idea how to tackle it, but it is actually pretty grim.Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

That's a result isn't it?Originally posted by k2p2 View PostSure if it's an occasional thing. But if he's blowing one every ten minutes then he'd never be at his desk.
On a slightly different subject I once worked with a guy who was continually burping. That was down to diet (too acidic?), and chain smoking. He did see a doctor about it.Behold the warranty -- the bold print giveth and the fine print taketh away.Comment
